If you’re building a serious Aussie $2 collection, this is a cornerstone coin.

Released for Remembrance Day, the 2012 $2 Red Poppy became an instant modern classic not just because it looks incredible in hand, but because it made history as Australia’s first full-colour circulating $2 coin.

Even better: it’s a genuinely low-mintage issue, with 0.5 million (500,000) struck, making it one of the toughest modern coloured coins to secure in true UNC condition.
